Subject: Allow automated testing for more non-Windows OS
The Makefile.PL currently exits early for any OS other than linux. As far as I know this module works on FreeBSD and OS X as well so it would be nice to allow automated testing reports (for dependent modules as well!) from these. See https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/perl/pod/perlport.pod#PLATFORMS for platform names to test, 'darwin' and 'freebsd' would cover the above.

I would even go a step further and reverse the logic: just forbid MSWin32 and allow everything else. Currently the vast majority of smoking happens only on Windows and Unix machines.
